The Utah men’s basketball team concludes its exhibition slate hosting the Oregon Ducks on Wednesday, Oct. 21.
SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah men's basketball team wraps up its exhibition schedule this Wednesday, Oct. 21, as it hosts the Oregon Ducks inside the Jon M. Huntsman Center beginning at 6:30 p.m. (MDT).

Â
LAST TIME OUT
Utah fell against Nevada 71-61 in its second exhibition game this past Saturday on the road. It was a tale of two halves as the host got hot from the floor shooting 55.2-percent in the second half compared to its 28.1-percent in the first half. Utah's 15 turnovers also proved fatal down the stretch – which led to a 14-2 edge for the Wolf Pack.
Â
Trey Campbell led the way for Utah on offense with 14 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. Taison Chatman, who came off the bench this game, had 11 points while Jackson Holcombe just missed a double-double with 10 points and 9 rebounds to go with 3 assists.
Â
RUN IT BACK
The last time Utah and Oregon took the court last season in exhibition play, the Utes fell to the Ducks 73-53 at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene. Obomate Abbey was the lone Ute on the team this season that played in the game last season, scoring 2 points with 2 rebounds and 3 assists in 20 minutes of action.
Â
For the Ducks, only Wei Lin and Sean Stewart were on last year's squad that saw action in the game. Lin was the third-leading scorer for Oregon with 10 points and 4 assists while Stewart came off the bench to record 6 points 9 rebounds and 2 blocks.
Â
SCOUTING THE DUCKS
After 16 years at the helm in Eugene, Dana Altman has stepped down as the head coach of the Oregon Ducks. His retirement concluded a 37-year career as a head coach with 792 career victories – 382 of them with the Ducks. Long time assistant Tony Stubblefield was named the interim head coach for the 2026-27 season.
Â
Oregon opened its exhibition schedule with a 71-65 loss to Seattle U last Thursday. Pharaoh Compton came off the bench to lead the team with 15 points and 5 rebounds while Andrew Meadow had 12 points and 3 boards. Taylor Bowen added 11 points and 7 rebounds off the bench. Dwayne Aristode filled the stat sheet for the Ducks with 8 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 rebounds.
Â
UP NEXT
With its exhibition schedule all wrapped up, the Utah men's basketball team now has a week and half to prepare for the 2026-27 season opener on Monday, Nov. 2, against Long Beach State. Tip-off is slated for 7 p.m. (MDT) inside the Jon M. Huntsman Center as Runnin' Utes open year two of the Alex Jensen Era with a five-game homestand. Chris Sylvester will call the action alongside former Utah assistant coach Joe Cravens on ESPN+.
Â
LOOKING AHEAD
The five-game homestand to start the year continues for Utah as it welcomes in Towson for a 7 p.m. (MDT) contest on Thursday, Nov. 5, inside the Jon M. Huntsman Center. This will serve as the first meeting ever between the Runnin' Utes and Tigers. Chris Sylvester will once again have the call alongside former Utah assistant coach Joe Cravens on ESPN+.
